GETTING READY
Memo
When sewing with fine, cross-wound thread,
use the small spool cap, and leave a small
space between the cap and the spool.

When using thread that winds off quickly,
such as transparent nylon thread or metallic
thread, place the spool net over the spool
before placing the spool of thread onto the
spool pin.
If the spool net is too long, fold it to fit the
size of the spool.
When the spool net is used, the tension of
the upper thread will slightly increase. Be
sure to check the thread tension. For details,
refer to "Adjusting the Thread Tension"
(page 57).
